Did anyone manage to see the Bernard Hopkins Vs. Kelly Pavlick fight, was a decent fight and what a crazy result. I expected Pavlik to mop the floor with Hopkins really easily. Everything cried out Pavlik wins. Pavlikhas looked awesome of late with great wins and a kick ass KO record. Hopkins looked like shit against Joe Calzaghe and lost twice to Jerome Taylor a guy that Pavlik took out twice.
What a crazy fight and this win to me cements Bernard Hopkins as one of the greatest boxers ever to me. He is a real fighter and a true warrior. The sport needs more people like him, that has the I will fight anybody at any place attitude. I'm actually not a huge fan of his but he right now is the man in boxing.

Just in case I don't say it or haven't said it already...good luck to Joe Calzaghe for his fight against Roy Jones Jnr and Ricky Hatton against Paul Malignaggi. Both top fighter and among the best in the world. Both I think WILL win.

B-HOP sure did look god. He had a great strategy for the night and above all he moved his feet. Pavs wasn't very mobile, didn't find his range or timing. All in all he looked really pale.

Not a big hopkins fan and like i said though Pav would kill but Hopkins is such a good tactical fighter when he gets it right and that was Hopkins back to his best. Would like to see that again too actually against another good fighter.
As for Pav back to the drawing board learning how not to choke when fav against a top big name fighter, maybe.
